Black Mirror

In our world were we are surrounded by BS content it is rare to find original ideas. This series delivers impressively lot of it. No episode is genius, but some of them are absolutely great. One gets disappointed when the next episode does not blow your mind and is simply good.

But god. What a pain it is when youve seen enough for the day and try to watch light content instead. You open Youtube, are confronted with 2 stupid ads, skip through a stupid video and end up on stupid YT shorts. All of them had one in common. They TRIED to be original. Maybe this is why they failed.

I do not think the producers Black Mirror primarily thought about how to entertain the audience. The inspiration for the episodes comes from problems we phase currently or fear in the future to deal with. We admire Black Mirror because it mirrors our reality (at least the dark parts). Made up content has flaws. Nothing fits. To many contradictions. But a series based on reality - it wont face these plot holes. And this is what makes many of these episodes so great. They are potential realities.

Anyways. I think Black Mirror might change the way you think. And if this is the first time you check that kind of genre out - this change might be major.
